“Each sport I make, each venture I work on, I deal with it prefer it may very well be my final,” he stated. “So I simply pour the whole lot into it, I go away nothing on the desk.
After we did the primary Final of Us sport, that’s how I handled it, I wasn’t positive I might ever get to make a sequel, so it needed to have a definitive ending. Likewise, once I labored on Uncharted 4, similar factor. Once I labored on Final of Us 2, I used to be like I don’t know if I’ll ever get to do that once more. It had this definitive ending.”

Each occasionally, an concept pops into your head of the place it’d go if we get the possibility to do one other one. However I simply method it as, ‘What if I by no means get to do one other one?’…I’m not saving some concept for the long run. If there’s a cool concept, I’m doing my greatest to get it into right here.”
